Tiger Treasures rummage sale

I recently got back from the Tiger Treasures rummage sale at MU’s Memorial Stadium today. Close to a thousand people showed up to get bargain prices on clothing, appliances, electronics and many other things that were donated or left behind by students in MU residence halls, student apartments and Greek houses.

Although a lot of the items were standard things you’d find in a dorm room — mini fridges, futons, microwaves, etc. — there were a few things that really gave Tiger Treasures more of a garage sale feeling.

They include:

*Guitar Hero guitar

*Sombreros

*a Zou Crew foam fan paw

*”Clueless” cordless phone

*space-themed men’s robe

*two chalices with skeleton hands up the sides

*Flarr! noise putty

*”HONK IF YOU LOVE SEXY JESUS” bumper stickers

*a pink “Put your big girl panties on and deal with it” beer koozie

*a giant Sonic the Hedgehog stuff animal, as well as a Spongebob Squarepants stuffed animal

*king’s crown and septor

…aaaand two rolls of toilet paper out of a 4-pack.

Most items were sold or claimed by 8 a.m., but the sale goes until noon and there’s a good chance a lot of the items listed above will still be there.
